Cream together butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs. Mix in baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add flour until blended. Stir in apples and nuts. Pour in greased 9x13 pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 30-45 minutes until center top springs back when touched.

You can also make a caramel sauce to drizzle on top, but there is no need for this, it's amazing without it.
